		<description><![CDATA[Whirlpool Corporation (WHR) has opened a million-square-feet facility in East Tennessee that will manufacture premium cooking products. The new facility, replacing a 123-year-old plant at the same location, will add 130 jobs to the company’s 1,500 people workforce. The company has invested $200 million in the project. The facility also includes a 400,000-square-foot distribution center. Whirlpool posted a profit of $2.62 per share for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with $171 million or $2.19 per share in the same period last year. However, excluding special items, profits decreased to 32 cents per share from 43 cents per share in the fourth quarter of 2010. It was significantly lower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.93 per share. Sales in the quarter fell marginally to $4.9 billion from $5.0 billion ]]></description>

We will have representation from the who’s who of the corporate world, with a number of bellwether players on tap to come out with results. By the end of the week, we will have a good enough number to judge this earnings season. While earnings will remain the primary focus during the week, we have a number of market-moving economic releases on deck as well. We will get a sense of the consumer economy though the monthly Retail Sales numbers, while the Industrial Production report will give us a good read on the manufacturing sector.

		<description><![CDATA[Our analysts were right about Apple (AAPL) declaring its dividend and surging past $600/share. But how do they feel about the future of Apple? All I can say is… Our analysts are the real deal. Last year, Investment U Associate Investment Director Marc Lichtenfeld and Senior Analyst Steve McDonald made bold predictions about the world’s largest tech company Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL). And already this year, both of their forecasts have come true… Prediction #1: Apple to $600 Steve McDonald’s prediction came first on December 19th. Here’s the condensed version of what he had to say: “A recent survey of buying trends of iProducts for Morgan Stanley by AlphaWise was full of upside surprises. “The street may be underestimating Apple’s 2012 ‘iProducts’ sales by as much as 40 percent. “If this ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After announcing plans for initiating new intermodal services connecting British Columbia and Alberta, Canadian National Railway (CNI) is about to carry out another infrastructural development. The company is purchasing approximately 65 new and 96 second-hand locomotives to enhance the service abilities on its network and support the growing demand for rail freight. Through the year, Canadian National will take deliveries of approximately 87 second-hand and 11 leased locomotives from GE Transportation, a subsidiary of General Electric (GE). Further, in 2013 and 2014, the company is slated to take deliveries of approximately 35 locomotives from GE Transportation and 30 new SD70ACe locomotives from Electro-Motive Diesel, a subsidiary of Caterpillar Inc. (CAT). The purchase of new locomotives will ensure higher fuel efficiency for the company as they replace older fleet that not ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the last few months, you know that Facebook has filed its initial paperwork with regulators for its initial public offering (IPO). And they’ve hired five underwriters for the job, with Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) taking the lead role. The company is currently looking at a valuation of $75 billion to $100 billion, which would be one of the largest initial public offerings in U.S. history. These Numbers Make No Sense… Facebook generated $3.7 billion in revenue in 2011, and a nice $1 billion in net income. For those of us who truly value fundamentals: If Facebook goes public and hits its high end with a $100-billion market cap – that means it would have a P/E of 100 times trailing earnings. Forbes took ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The tide for commercial aerospace appears to have turned, as the global economy continues to recover. Both airline traffic and new aircraft orders have significantly recovered from their recession lows. Therefore, the stocks dealing with aerospace and defense products should be a good pick at least for the next couple years. Aerospace companies see continued growth in their backlog, with the industry now expected to grow in the mid-single-digit rate. However, the past decade has seen a much slower growth rate, so we have our reservations about this optimistic projection. The recent rebound in commercial air traffic and a slight increase in defense spend is good news for companies in the segment. Growth in commercial aircraft is expected to be driven by increased demand for new age jet engines which ]]></description>

The deal would add the World-Herald, six other daily newspapers and several weekly newspapers to its current portfolio of media business, which includes Business Wire, Buffalo News and Washington Post Co. (WPO). Buffett is known for cherry-picking big businesses. This acumen has helped him to build a conglomerate of this behemoth size, which houses over 70 different businesses. Over decades, Berkshire has become a mature company, which generates substantial cash quarter after quarter, keeping Buffett on continuous hunt to seek attractive investments in order enhance stockholder value.

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, Merge Healthcare (MRGE) showcased its new cloud-based platform ‘Merge Honeycomb’ along with its first application in the cloud, namely ‘free image sharing’ at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). This application enables users to upload, download, view and share medical images everywhere without the help of any additional software. Through this new solution the company intends to improve image interoperability and achieve the ‘Meaningful Use’ stamp from the federal government. Earlier this month, Merge selected Dell, Inc (DELL) as its preferred cloud computing services provider. The company expects to launch “Merge Honeycomb” in the first quarter of 2012, which led to a 17.5% increase in the stock price to $5.18 on Monday. Presently, Merge boasts the largest image sharing network opportunity with 6,000 clinics across the US, This ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the face of high competition, the Dutch company Royal Philips Electronics NV (PHG) got approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to sell a combination scanner that performs both positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging. The scanner is expected to accelerate imaging time for cancer patients, as PET identifies cancer cells as it absorbs chemical tracers. The magnetic resonance imaging will be helpful to identify the surrounding tissue. In addition, the magnetic imaging is also capable of scanning bone and combining systems in order to improve the diagnosis of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. The big advantage of this machine is that these diagnoses can be done at much lower radiation levels than X-rays. In addition, the new scanner is expected to deliver with quality and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We maintain a Neutral rating on General Electric Company (GE), since the shares appear to be fairly valued. While the 10.8 multiple to our earnings estimate for 2011 represents a 37% discount to the peer group, we believe the valuation is justified by GE’s weaker earnings power. The energy business is expected to drive long-term growth for General Electric, as global demand for alternative energy production will continue to increase. The company had an order growth of 15% in the last reported quarter, primarily driven by demand for energy equipment. Aviation is another bright spot, with the rebound in commercial air traffic driving demand for GE’s new age jet engines. The jet engines are in high demand among the leading aircraft manufacturers, particularly Boeing (BA). However, the Industrial business and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 10/14/11 While the earnings season kicked off this past week, only 38 firms reported. The game really gets under way next week, when we will get reports from 336 firms, including 99 members of the S&#38;P 500. Thus, by the end of the week we will have a very good idea of how the overall season will go. Not only will there be a lot of reports, but many of those we get will be very important ones. The table at the end of this report reads like a who’s who of American industry, including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), General Electric (GE), Goldman Sachs (GS), IBM (IBM), Intel (INTC) and McDonald’s (MCD). And that&#8217;s just the first half of the alphabet! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Tuesday, markets ended mixed after trading in a tight range throughout the day, as investors anxiously waited for Slovakia’s vote for or against bolstering Europe&#8217;s financial rescue plan. Investors also eagerly awaitedAlcoa’s quarterly results, which would kick-start the third quarter earnings season. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) fluctuated between small gains and losses to finally end at 11,416.3, dropping roughly 0.2%. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) declined by less than 0.1% to finish the day at 1,195.54. The Nasdaq Composite Index gained 0.7% to close at 2,583.03. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) hovered below 33. Advancers outnumbered the decliners on the NYSE by a ratio of 2,199 to 1,719.

		<description><![CDATA[Tyco International Ltd. (TYC) announced its plans to break out into three separate companies. The plan has received the unanimous approval of Tyco’s Board of Directors. The trio to be formed out of Tyco include the ADT North America residential security business, low control products and services business and commercial fire and security business. Each company will have an independent existence and will be publicly traded. Tyco believes the restructuring will enable each stand-alone unit to re-focus more fully on its core business and provide improved services to its customers. The three companies will enjoy leading positions in the markets served by them, thus creating significant value for shareholders. The transaction is expected to be completed in approximately 12 months, subject to certain conditions including shareholder consent. The company estimates ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Europe remains in the headlines, with rating downgrades for two major French banks due to their Greek exposure. But the overall tone of Europe-centric headlines has improved as the Germans have started to back-peddle from some of their tougher statements. It may be a tad calmer in Europe today, but rest assured that the issue is not going away anytime soon. We also have plenty of economic news on the domestic front this morning, with a soft Retail Sales report and a fairly benign inflation reading. On the inflation front, we got a relatively benign wholesale inflation reading for August this morning, with the &#8216;headline&#8217; flat vs. expectation of a 0.1% drop. The &#8216;core&#8217; PPI number came in better than expected at 0.1% vs. an expectation of 0.2%. The more ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Clean Energy and Spy Bots The biggest problem with most clean energy companies is the speculation involved. Most aren’t profitable, at least not yet, especially in the electronic vehicle (EV) market. It’s a guessing game trying to figure out what products or brands will take off. For instance, a company such as Ecotality (Nasdaq: ECTY) could end up being a future leader in EV charging systems. It announced last Thursday that it was chosen to install 200 EV charging stations around the Houston area. But the company’s tiny market cap of $53.96 million and lack of profitability makes Ecotality a relatively shaky investment. Its beta of 2.38 shows it’s more than twice as volatile as the market as a whole… and the market as a whole hasn’t been very stable. ]]></description>

The acquisition will cost the company $9.7 billion, at $135 per share. The purchase consideration includes $0.7 billion of the acquired company’s debt. Post-acquisition, Berkshire will continue with its headquarters at Wickliffe, Ohio, and will be led by the current management. CEO Warren Buffett has always managed Berkshire’s diverse range of 80 businesses in a manner that requires operating decisions for the various businesses to be made by managers of the respective business units. Lucrative Lubrizol Lubrizol is a company which perfectly meets all the criteria that Buffett looks for in an acquisition. It particularly appeared attractive to him because of its consistent long-term earnings growth, a diverse product range and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Boeing Company (BA) announced that it will deliver its first 747-8 Freighter to Cargolux Airlines International S.A. on September 19, 2011 at Paine Field in Everett, Washington. Cargolux will also take delivery of the second 747-8 Freighter on September 21, 2011. The carrier has ordered 13 747-8 airplanes on Boeing. This new 747-8 model only retains the iconic shape of the first 747, but is by far more advanced than the initial 747&#8242;s rolled out from Boeing&#8217;s factory. The latest from Boeing features cutting-edge breakthroughs in aviation technology, akin to the 787 Dreamliner, featuring new wings, a brand new body and engines. Consequently, the airplane would improve upon fuel efficiency by 16% and reduce carbon emissions by another 16%. The 747-8 Freighter is the high-capacity version of 747 that ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Boeing Company (BA) launched a new engine variant of its 737 series airliners christened 737 MAX. Boeing 737 is a short- to medium-range, twin-engine narrow-body passenger jet airliner. The new engine variant 737 MAX would be powered by CFM International LEAP-1B engines. CFM International is an equally owned joint venture between GE Aviation, a division of General Electric Company (GE) and French conglomerate Safran. The fuel efficient engines would enable the 737 MAX airliners with a distinct cost advantage over its peers in the single-aisle segment. Boeing estimates the advantage could stretch as far as 7% versus its comparable peers like the European aerospace company EADS’ Airbus A320 series airliners. Boeing’s new 737 variant has already order commitments for 496 units from five airlines. Delivery of the airline is ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Earnings Picture Second quarter earnings season is effectively over with 492 or 98.4% of the S&#38;P 500 reports in. With the exception of a handful of financials &#8212; most notably Bank of America (BAC), which had a $12 billion negative swing in net income from last year &#8212; this has been another great earnings season. The year-over-year growth rate for the S&#38;P 500 is 12.1%, way off the 17.6% pace those same 492 firms posted in the first quarter. However, it you exclude the Financial sector, growth is 19.7%, down only slightly from the 19.8% pace of the first quarter. The 98.4% reported figure slightly understates how far we are along in earnings season. If all the remaining firms were to report exactly in line with expectations, we now ]]></description>

For the month it was up 4.4%, and it was worse than the $48.0 billion consensus expectation. On a year-over-year basis, the total trade deficit was up 13.2% from $46.89 billion a year ago. The trade balance has two major parts, trade in goods and trade in services. America’s problem is always on the goods side; we actually routinely have a small surplus in services. Relative to May, the goods deficit rose to $67.58 billion from $65.47 billion. That is a month-to-month increase of 3.2%.

Additionally, positive economic news from Japan also brought joy to the markets and helped the Dow record its best three-day point gains since November 2008. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) jumped 213 points or 1.9% to settle at 11,482.90. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P500) gained 2.2% and closed the day at 1,204.49. The Nasdaq Composite Index surged 1.9% to finish the day at 2,555.20. On the New York Stock Exchange, consolidated volumes were at 4.5 billion shares, marginally ahead of last year’s average of 4.3 billion shares.

		<description><![CDATA[Indices were dealt yet another blow by a multitude of concerns as benchmarks incurred heavy losses on Wednesday. Worries about the debt crisis spreading to Italy and Spain bogged down investor sentiment with additional pressure coming from fears of France losing its AAA rating. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) had been feeling the heat very frequently off late and it posted its third fall of more than 500 points in five trading days. The Dow plunged 519 points or 4.6% to close at 10,719.94. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) slid 4.4% to settle at 1,120.76.

		<description><![CDATA[Standard &#38; Poor’s downgraded the US credit rating by a notch, delivering a crushing blow to benchmarks on Monday. Tension from the other side of the Atlantic also dampened sentiment as Europe was gripped by debt woes. Investors also struggled to find a clear answer about whether the recent turmoil means that another recession is in the offing, at a time when the economy is yet to recover from the last one. The credit rating agency’s decision came in on Friday last week after the closing bells. Monday was thus the first trading day after the downgrade, and almost immediately benchmarks ended up in the red. This is the first time that the US has lost its AAA rating since 1917. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) posted its sixth-worst ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The volatile run of the markets ended with modest gains, which was also marked one of the busiest days of trading since mid-March. Uncertainty over economic growth kept investors jittery, though the benchmarks escaped recording their longest losing streak since Jimmy Carter’s days in the White House. Traders believe the rebound was partially led by former Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Donald Kohn’s comments about the Fed considering a new stimulus plan, which brought the buyers into the market. As the day began, investors were once again bogged down by concerns about the economy and the markets opened with steep losses. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) dipped 166 points before recouping its losses to settle at 11,896.21, up 0.3%. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) added 0.5% to finish ]]></description>

There will be 348 firms reporting, and 108 of those are in the S&#38;P 500. By next Friday we should have a very good handle on how the overall earnings season will go. The firms reporting this week are sort of like a who&#8217;s who of U.S. industry including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Caterpillar (CAT), General Electric (GE), International Business Machines (IBM), Intel (INTC), McDonald&#8217;s (MCD), Schlumberger (SLB) and Verizon (VZ). That is an interesting cross section of U.S. business. We have a relatively light economic data calendar, so earnings should be front and center, along with the sovereign debt situations on both ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Indices washed out early gains made after Fed minutes suggested the possibility of a third economic stimulus package, as euro-zone debt woes led to markets closing in the red for the third consecutive day. Meanwhile, reports of US trade deficit surging more than expected also kept investors jittery. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) shed 0.5% to settle at 12,446.88. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) finished at 1,313.64, after dropping 0.4%. The Nasdaq Composite Index declined 0.7% to close at 2,781.91. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) shot up to touch 19. Consolidated volumes on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), AMEX and Nasdaq remained low at 7.12 billions shares, compared with last year&#8217;s daily average of 8.47 billion. On the NYSE, for every 13 stocks that climbed up, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mindray Medical International Limited (MR), a leading Chinese medical devices company, recently forged an agreement to take a controlling stake in Suzhou Hyssen Electronics Co. Ltd (&#8220;Hyssen&#8221;). The transaction will not affect Mindray’s financial results. The company did not reveal the terms of the deal. Hyssen, based in Suzhou, China, is a leader in automated urine sediment analyzers in the domestic market. Urine sediment, along with dry chemistry analysis, constitutes urinalysis.

		<description><![CDATA[Itron Inc. (ITRI) recently announced the completion of the installation of more than 150,000 Itron gas meter communication modules in Greater Houston for a natural gas distribution subsidiary of CenterPoint Energy Inc. (CNP). The project will include a total of 1.2 million communication modules and will be completed by 2013. These meters can effectively do away with the necessity of entering the premises of customers to take the readings manually. These communication modules employ the radio transmitting devices attached to the CenterPoint Energy’s customers’ existing natural gas meters, enabling the collection of readings once a month by a mobile meter reading device mounted to a CenterPoint Energy vehicle. According to Itron, CenterPoint is an old and valued customer and Itron is looking forward to conferring the benefits of smart metering ]]></description>
